Adult Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Adults Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Our adult Jiu Jitsu classes are based upon a proven formula. Our process begins with simple instruction and demonstration of BJJ techniques, followed by student practice, feedback, live BJJ training, and competitions, if desired. At our Jiu Jitsu school, we are lucky to offer high-quality instruction from world-class athletes who work with you to develop BJJ techniques.

In our adult BJJ classes, you’ll Increase your energy and concentration levels as you develop your self-defense technique. However, we are more than just a BJJ school: our Jiu Jitsu classes for adults offer a family environment where everyone becomes part of a team. We offer several levels of adult Brazilian Jiu Jitsu: new students can learn the fundamentals in our Fundamentals classes, while more experienced students can join our Advanced and Black Belt Classes.

BJJ Fundamentals

Our fundamental classes follow several well-established fundamental curriculums (Ribeiro, Draculino, Gracie Barra, etc). The curriculum repeats itself in three-month cycles and can be joined anytime. Classes start with a light warm up and a demonstration of several techniques. Then, we drill these techniques under the coaches’ supervision, finishing with some positional sparring or drilling of the learned techniques.

Students with less than a year experience, including new beginners, must start in the Fundamentals class. Once students have two stripes on their belt (3 months), they can start going to the Advanced class, but we strongly recommend sticking with Fundamentals for the first year to solidify these important basic techniques.

Advanced BJJ

Our advanced class are taught by world champion black belt “Super Dave” Rothwell. These classes focus on more advanced techniques with lots of drilling. Techniques will focus on particular positions with lots of drilling of the techniques. Ample time is left at the end of class for sparring!

Private Classes

Work one-on-one with our experienced coaches. Whether you’re a beginner looking to accelerate your training or an experienced artist prepping for a competition, private classes will help reinforce and round out your practice.

Black Belt Training

At PTT Vernon, we are lucky to have many skilled and dedicated training partners. Black Belt Training is offered to students who have mastered the fundamentals and are working towards their black belt.
